Guide to choosing a base for your mattress

Choose a support or base for our mattress This is one of the big questions that comes to mind after buying a mattress, and it is also essential for getting a good night's sleep. When you start looking and researching, you realize how many options are available. The main thing is to establish what your needs are and what you are looking for.

And the fact is that a canapé that allows us to meet our storage needs, which is a upholstered baseWith this short guide, we want to help you learn everything you need to know to choose the perfect base for your mattress.

Step 1: What type of support will you choose?

First, we must decide whether we want a bed base or, on the contrary, we prefer a storage bed. The main difference is the storage capacity offered by the storage bed and not the bed base. The storage bed is like having a large extra closet in our homes, and well, you know that extra space never hurts in our homes.

Another big difference to bear in mind is that the upholstered base is usually raised off the floor, so we can clean underneath it or use our robot vacuum cleaner, which is the most convenient thing in the world. The divan bed is attached to the floor, so to clean it we have to move it entirely.

One advantage is that dust does not tend to accumulate under the sofa, as it is right next to the floor. We just need to move it away from the wall to vacuum behind it. Once this point has been decided, we can continue.

Step 2: Budget

As with any purchasing decision, the first thing we must consider is our available budget, how much we can spend on the base. This allows us to rule out any models and options that do not fit our budget, avoiding spending more than necessary. To define a budget, we must be clear about certain aspects that will determine the price of the base, such as the following:

Assembly and delivery: One vote for convenience is having it delivered to your home and assembled for you. This is undoubtedly a great relief and time saver, especially for those of us who are not handy with assembly.
Quality and strength of the materials used to manufacture the base.
Stability, providing comfortable support and sufficient traction to support the mattress during rest.
Reinforced corners: you may not have thought about it, but you don't know how annoying it is to walk past the bed and bump your shins. If it's ever happened to you, you know what I'm talking about. Well, for us, this point is very important. They should have rounded, reinforced corners to protect our peace of mind and our shins.
Proper support: we must ensure that the base we choose is the right size for our mattress, preventing it from sticking out or being too small. It should also fit the space we have in the bedroom, so that we have enough room to get out of bed without it being too tight.
Headboard, it provides greater comfort for our back and neck, prevents damage to the wall such as stains or scratches, and, of course, is an essential decorative element in our bedroom.

Step 3: Design and materials

When deciding to purchase a base for our mattress, it is important to know what materials it is made of and their quality. This way, we can ensure greater resistance and durability.

Non-slip upholstery to prevent our mattress from sliding when placed on top, stain-resistant fabrics to make them last longer, and available in various colors. Decoration always plays a fundamental role. In the following article, you can find some tips for decorating our bedroom.

Step 4: What size do you need?

Choosing the ideal size for your bed is an important decision. If you are thinking about replacing your entire bed, think carefully because larger sizes tend to be much more comfortable. You just need to take one thing into account: the space in your bedroom. There should be enough space to get in and out comfortably without having to dodge anything.

If, on the other hand, you already have the mattress and are only changing the base, just make sure you choose the same size as your mattress and voilà, you'll have your perfect base.

At Morfeo, we offer a wide variety of bed sizes so you can find the ideal base and mattress for you. You can find out about them all in our Morfeo Guide to finding the perfect mattress. Our bases are designed to perfectly support each of our mattress models and sizes.

Step 5: Choosing the height

Another important consideration when choosing a bed base is height. For example, upholstered bases tend to be more adaptable, as the legs can be adjusted to the desired height. In the case of canapéThey tend to be taller, as they offer extra storage space inside.

We must be clear about our needs when buying a foundation in order to find the model that best suits us.

Step 6: Which one best suits your bedroom?

Once we have decided on the size and height we want for our base, we narrow down the search criteria and all that remains is to choose the color and design that best suits our bedroom.

If your bedroom has a more traditional aesthetic, you may want to look for a more traditional bed frame, such as our upholstered base, with a soft headboard and matching upholstery.

Step 7: Explore the different types of bed frames

From the upholstered base to the canapéThere are different options, models, and designs. The most important thing is to know what our needs are when it comes to buy a base for our mattress, whether we want it to serve a purely aesthetic function or, on the contrary, whether we also want it to provide extra storage space in our bedroom.

To do this, set your search criteria, see which options match them, and choose the one that best suits your search needs.

Step 8: Determine whether you will need a mattress or just the base

This is very important, as it is not the same thing. find the base that fits the mattress perfectly that we already have at home, rather than purchasing both new products.

If we have a new mattress and want to change only the base, we must adjust not only to the size based on the space, but also to the size of our mattress so that nothing sticks out.

If you have decided to purchase a new bed base and mattress, the task is simpler because, for example, all our bed bases are tailored to our mattress sizes. In this case, you only need to decide whether you want a bed base or storage base and what size you want for your bedroom.
